During the two-day conference and showcase Wendy Mach, Packaging Section Leader at Nelson Laboratories, will be presenting in the Knowledge Center on Sterile Barrier Packaging: Common Causes of Failures and How to Correct Them on Wednesday June 11th from 1:30- 3:30 pm.

This presentation will provide a brief overview of the types of tests that are available to validate a Sterile Barrier System. Though it is not expected, failures can happen while performing these tests. The presentation will take a look at common failures within these tests, provide some understanding behind why they happen, and suggest ways to correct and avoid them.

Nelson Laboratories will have technical representatives available in their booth ready to assist orthopedic device manufacturers with any questions about testing their devices and packaging.
